In many cities of northern Kurdistan and Turkey, mothers of political prisoners have taken to the streets despite police blockade to draw attention to the hunger strike against the isolation of Abdullah Öcalan.

"We started a resistance, and we will not stop until the last drop of our blood. We will continue to be in the streets. Erdogan should know that like we broke ISIS attacks, today Erdogan will end. History will one day hold him to account."

The police attacked mothers holding a vigil in front of the Bakirkoy Prison to draw attention to the prisoners on hunger strikes and death fasts demanding an end to the isolation. Several mothers were battered and detained.
